Einstein?

[Corey Balint]

Does anyone know which division plays which on Einstein?

[meglovesbots]

einstein is the field where the finals are held for the champs of each division

it is also used as the lego field for the first 2 days of competition

I'm pretty sure he was asking which division plays which once they get to Einstein.

[Tottanka]

I believe its random...

[Corey Balint]

Last year, they released it before Nats in a team update I think. I couldn't find anythign like that this year though.

Einstien
1126, 229, 191
233, 71, 179
1114, 469, 1523
190-987-177

Last year at nationals we won the curie division and I beleive we played archimedes...whichever divsion the thunderchickens were in. So that would mean curie vs. arch and newt vs. gal. But for some reason two years ago I remember we were in Newton and we won the whole thing and I think we played gal in the finals. Maybe it is random, or maybe I have bad memory.

I know it changes every year, I just don't know how they change it.

not bad, 2/4. with only watching matches on Gal.


Here it is for real:

Einstein
Curie: 330, 910, 1270
Newton: 987, 190, 177
Galileo: 173, 1902, 1319
Archimedes: 233, 71, 179

What happens if a robot is disabled during the Finals of the Champiosnhip?

By disabled I'm assuming that you mean broken, and the alliance needs the backup bot.
The backup bot for each division winning alliance is the alliance captain of the respective division finalist.
I believe the finalist captain can decline to be the backup and in that case the first selected team by the finalist captain is the backup.

If a robot is disabled during the match, by the referees, well, that's how the game works.

so did we get another clue about a three colored light or was that just some toy that somebody at first threw together. What do you guys think?

They actually had that last year, and said that you could expect it in next year's game (what would become Rack n' Roll), but nothing is ever set in stone. I believe the GDC uses Atlanta as their first major meeting for 2008 and they start throwing around ideas for next year. Well I guess we can expect to see the Light back next year, but in 3 colors? Sounds like a challenge.

[KTorak]

I doubt we would see 3 colors when 1 color doesn't even work right half of the time. I kinda want to blame the stage style lighting that FIRST uses and how it varies from field to field because no setup is exactly the same. But that's another discussion.

Archimedes played Curie
and
Galileo played Newton

then

Archimedes played Newton

Newton was the Champion
